No, there wasn't a whole lot at stake in Wednesday night's friendly match between Mexican club Chivas of Guadalajara and a weakened Barcelona side in Miami. But low stakes or not, the Goats walked away with all the pride that comes with defeating the Catalan giants 4-1 ... and then some.

That "then some" arrived in the form of this breathtaking scissor-kick goal from Chivas striker Marco Fabian, his second in the space of three minutes and the eventual game-winner:

Beating even Barcelona's B-team is something to be proud of. Beating them in that kind of style, though, is something to savor, whether the result counts for something or doesn't.
